Verse 1:
I’m battling demons, they don’t let me sleep at night,
Mix emotions in my cup, yeah I’m losing sight,
Ooh, steady mixing all these drugs just to feel alright,
But fuck being sober, it's a harder fight.
Chorus:
I’m drowning in my thoughts, yeah they overflow,
Running from the pain, but it won’t let go,
I’m trapped in this cycle, can’t break the flow,
But I’ll keep on mixing till the mornin’ glow.
Verse 2:
I’m lost in the haze, can’t find my way back,
Every sip I take, I’m falling off track,
These highs ain’t the answers but I keep coming back,
Fighting with my shadows in this life that I lack.
Chorus:
I’m drowning in my thoughts, yeah they overflow,
Running from the pain, but it won’t let go,
I’m trapped in this cycle, can’t break the flow,
But I’ll keep on mixing till the mornin’ glow.
Bridge:
Wish I could find a way to escape this cage,
Looking for the light, but I’m lost in my rage,
Countin’ all my blessings, but they feel like a phase,
These demons in my mind, they just won’t disengage.
Chorus:
I’m drowning in my thoughts, yeah they overflow,
Running from the pain, but it won’t let go,
I’m trapped in this cycle, can’t break the flow,
But I’ll keep on mixing till the mornin’ glow.
Outro:
Battling demons, and it’s a long road,
Seeking for redemption, but can’t find the code,
So I keep on mixing, let that truth be told,
Fuck being sober, I’ll just carry the load.
